"I've spent all of the love I saved
We were always a losing game"
~ Arcade, Duncan Laurence
Lili was sitting in her trailer, on her phone, she suddenly got a notification, it was her boyfriend. The text said: '
She cried, she really did like her boyfriend, but most of her crying was because she knew he was right. She still liked Cole, and now was the time to finally admit it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
News had broken out.
Everyone had found out that Lili and her boyfriend ( broke up, and everyone was still waiting for Cole to react to the news.
Cole, well, there were no words to describe how he felt really, he was overjoyed, and Ari noticed that.
Like Lili's boyfriend (or should we say, ex-boyfriend), she too had known that Cole was still in love with Lili. It seemed like everyone who saw the two interact knew that they still had very strong feelings for one another, but again, everyone but Lili and Cole themselves.
Ari decided she needed to do something, anything, to make Cole confess.
Yes, she really did love him, but truth is that if you truly love someone, you'd love to see them happy, even if it's not with you. (
She went to his apartment, and found him in a pretty good mood.
He welcomed her inside with a kiss and asked her if she wanted any food, she said yes and he decided to make her a burger .
He noticed that she was pretty much silent since she came, so he was concerned, When he was making food, she spoke up.
(
A: So, Cole, I've heard that Lili and her boyfriend broke up.
C: Yeah I saw the news, but why bring it up now?
A: Cole, please be honest with me, admit it, please.

C: Admit what, Ari? I've done nothing.
A: You still love her right?
(silence)
A: Yes, you do, Cole. I can see it. Everyone can.
C: What difference does it make now? She doesn't love me.
A: She does, Cole. Could you not see how she looks at you? There's longing and sadness, but most importantly, love, in her eyes. She can make you happy, I know that. Go get her, before it's too late.
C: but... what about..us?
A: We can stay friends of course. I really did love you, Cole, enough to let you go (
C: Thanks Ari, and I am really sorry.
A: It's really okay, don't worry about it. Just, be happy okay?
Cole nodded at her and she left.

Frameshift
Magic. Math. Not a whole lot of context. Two months ago, I was a wormhole navigator, ripping open a hole in the universe to save a ship of people who only vaguely tolerated me. Two weeks ago, long story short, I threaded an impossible path through the void between dimensions to crash-land into a dungeon. You know the kind: monsters to defeat, corridors full of traps to avoid, and magical powers to earn. I'm not ashamed to admit that it's been two weeks of loneliness, fear, adrenaline, and constant injury. But I'll make it out of here by myself if I have to, or my name isn't Adam Leviathan James. ... too bad the Levi doesn't stand for Leviathan, huh. AN: Expectations should include in medias res, violence, smut, friendship, and powers/progression systems with absolutely an insufficiency of context and (at least at first) no definitions or explanations, and magic-as-programming/engineering (with something of an emphasis on "what if magical runework were an analogue to circuit diagrams"). This story used to be called "Yet Another Godsforsaken Isekai". Discord server: https://discord.gg/dHh3XMMB4T Cover by the amazing Daedalus of The Way Ahead.

The Ocean Flame Palace Host
Schedule: I am officially going on an indefinite hiatus. Sorry to all readers but I just don't have any more ideas. Hai Yun is the youngest Divine Rank Alchemist on the Scarlet Flame continent. He was an orphan picked up by a wandering Alchemist Grand master and raised in the Crystal Ocean Alchemy Sect. As he soon got bored of refining other people’s recipes, he started creating his own. One such recipe was of an elixir that can allow one to retain their memories through reincarnation. He thought this heaven defying elixir could bring about a new golden age for alchemists, to let them keep all of their experience after death. However it only brings about a calamity as the other powers of the martial world immediately begin lusting after this divine object. They attack the Crystal Ocean Alchemy Sect en masse, razing it to the ground. To keep them from getting it, Hai Yun devours the Elixir and obliterates his body so they can never even find another trace of it in this world. However, in his reincarnation a series of very interesting things happen… Glossary: Wuxia Fantasies ***DISCLAIMER*** I do not own any of the artwork which was used in the book cover.

Erased
Alone in a vast expanse of knowledge and void of any previous memory what else was I to do but learn? The world above awaited me, but down here it was all I could do to read about it, prepare for it. How long would it take for me to see my first of the Learned Races, or encounter my first monster? To simply see a [City Guard] or a [Warrior] maybe even a [Mage], even then I'd be sated no matter how basic the Class. I wanted to witness what I read about, the fantastical [Secret Stache] of a [Treasure Hunter] or a [Pickpocket] using [Deft Hands]. These were natural occurrences above, but alas, I was below. And this deep down, I'd see my first horror before seeing any mere monster. My escape were the books but soon I'd turn that knowledge into a real escape, I'd emerge from this dear library and claw my way above. But I'd need to prepare myself, I just didn't know how yet. So back to my books.
